Assouline helps Japanese relief-efforts with stunning imagery

You’ve probably already donated to help the earthquake-, tsunami- and nuclear accident-stricken people of Japan via the Red Cross, but here’s another way to help: Buy a copy of The Light of Tokyo—and its publisher, Assouline, will donate 50 percent of the sales to relief efforts. Photographer Jean-Michel Berts, who has shot campaigns for Hermès, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Oscar de la Renta but also specializes in documenting the beauty of urban architecture, captures Japan’s soaring skyscrapers, serene formal gardens and elegant Buddhist temples in velvety black and white.
